Trees2 What is a Tree In computer science, a tree is an abstract model of a hierarchical structure A tree consists of nodes with a parent-child relation Applications: Organization charts File systems Programming environments Computers”R”Us SalesR&DManufacturing LaptopsDesktops US International EuropeAsiaCanada © 2013 Goodrich, Tamassia, Goldwasser
Trees3 subtree Tree Terminology Root: node without parent (A) Internal node: node with at least one child (A, B, C, F) External node (a.k.a. leaf ): node without children (E, I, J, K, G, H, D) Ancestors of a node: parent, grandparent, grand-grandparent, etc. Depth of a node: number of ancestors Height of a tree: maximum depth of any node (3) Descendant of a node: child, grandchild, grand-grandchild, etc. A B DC GH E F IJ K Subtree: tree consisting of a node and its descendants © 2013 Goodrich, Tamassia, Goldwasser
Trees4 Tree ADT We use positions to abstract nodes Generic methods: Integer len() Boolean is_empty() Iterator positions() Iterator iter() Accessor methods: position root() position parent(p) Iterator children(p) Integer num_children(p) Query methods: Boolean is_leaf(p) Boolean is_root(p) Update method: element replace (p, o) Additional update methods may be defined by data structures implementing the Tree ADT © 2013 Goodrich, Tamassia, Goldwasser

6 Preorder Traversal A traversal visits the nodes of a tree in a systematic manner In a preorder traversal, a node is visited before its descendants Application: print a structured document Make Money Fast! 1.

Trees8 Binary Trees A binary tree is a tree with the following properties: Each internal node has at most two children (exactly two for proper binary trees) The children of a node are an ordered pair We call the children of an internal node left child and right child Alternative recursive definition: a binary tree is either a tree consisting of a single node, or a tree whose root has an ordered pair of children, each of which is a binary tree Applications: arithmetic expressions decision processes searching A B C FG D E H I © 2013 Goodrich, Tamassia, Goldwasser

Trees12 BinaryTree ADT The BinaryTree ADT extends the Tree ADT, i.e., it inherits all the methods of the Tree ADT Additional methods: position left(p) position right(p) position sibling(p) Update methods may be defined by data structures implementing the BinaryTree ADT © 2013 Goodrich, Tamassia, Goldwasser
Trees13 Inorder Traversal In an inorder traversal a node is visited after its left subtree and before its right subtree Application: draw a binary tree x(v) = inorder rank of v y(v) = depth of v Algorithm inOrder(v) if v has a left child inOrder (left (v)) visit(v) if v has a right child inOrder (right (v)) © 2013 Goodrich, Tamassia, Goldwasser
